"FESTA DO SOL"<br> | |||
Composed by Sho Maruyama, a.k.a Mt.Circle (22 years old/Saitama/University student) | |||
The final selection was difficult to decide as the category with the most applications, but one person was selected, with the decisive factor being a new kind of song created which hasn't existed in the IIDX series.<br> | |||
During the production, [[Osamu Kubota]] was somehow introduced as the music producer, and it was completed with a professional sound while making the most of the original's goodness. | |||
Well, below is Sho Maruyama's comment. | |||
==== Sho Maruyama ==== | |||
Good evening, I'm Mt.Circle.<br> | |||
During the previous public contest, I was still in the state of composing songs, so I couldn't apply, but this time, I applied after a long time.<br> | |||
Since I went through the trouble to apply, I thought about creating a genre that's never been done before, and with my tense face, I tried to make it with a Latin-style + techno essence. The upper half is Latin and the lower half is techno. Finally, the avant-garde elements were also added to make the song interesting.<br> | |||
Osamu Kubota, who was the producer, gave me a lot of advice, and I also thank all the staff for helping me, including [[Takayuki Ishikawa|dj TAKA]]. Thank you very much. | |||
